    I think it looks fabulous.

    However I use Waldorf Attack 2 and that gui really is boring.

    How about you post a gui that you think doesn't look boring then for a comparison?

    *Looks at my gigabytes of kick sample libraries and goes "meh".*
    Somewhat interesting though. I can see more of these modular rack-typed VSTs coming along soon-ish from several companies.

    The logo and size of it is a bit much for me, design team kinda OD'd on the grainy thing. Looks like it has some cool qualities. Would be nice to see a comparison of this and something like rob papens punch/gua audio/sonic academy's kick plugins

    The GUI looks gorgeous.
    Too bad it's only dedicated to kick drums, it would have been a different story if we were talking about a drum/perc synthesizer instead.

    I'm with Baxter on this one. However, a nice modular synthesiser from D16 would be far more interesting. Maybe this is a kind of an "intro" to a D16 modular synth? It sounds logical that they release an Roland/Doepfer A100 type of synth plugin. I'd really like to see that. :wink:

    Since this is only a kick drum synth, I'm not really tempted to demo it, or even "try" it, if you get my drift.

    Bit heavy on the overall grunge but still a great looking job on this.

    +1 on the grunge design overkill. The gui looks like you could get hepatitis from staring at it too long.

    Why did you assume, I was talking about the GUI? I wasn't! I was refering to the whole idea of a Kickdrum Synth Module in general. Your Song does not prevail or fail based on a Kickdrum…
